I can mostly confirm this is definitely the case and working in F16: it's the mechanism we use to get *both* grub-efi *and* grub2 installed on an F15->F16 upgrade, to replace grub. Both those packages obsolete grub, and we've tested that this causes both anaconda and yum to install both of those packages when doing the upgrade. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
